On February 2nd, Candelaria Day, people go to the main church with candles. The lights in the church are off. When they start praying they light the candles.  It is a very spiritual experience.  Later at home, families share the tamales and atole from those that got the little doll on The Wise Men Day on January 6.

On the same day, there is an opening of the flower fair in Benito Juarez park which lasts for two weeks.  People can  buy all type of flowers, cacti, little trees, seeds, fertilizer, and flower pots for their homes and gardens.

 

 

 

 

 

The day before Ash Wednesday, people celebrate the Carnival in the main plaza Jardin, selling paper flowers and egg shells with confetti inside of them.


Children buy the egg shells and break them over their friend's heads.
